Gym Stuff
I only have 4 sessions left with Dale, my trainer. It's very nerve-wracking. I'm worried that I'm going to lose motivation to keep going to the gym. Honestly, it's been rare lately for me to be there when I'm not working with him. Between school and work I don't have the time. School's going to get even harder over the next couple months - up until April really. I've really enjoyed working with him. I feel that he challenges me in ways that Leo (old trainer) didn't, and has helped me realize that I'm stronger than I think. I do make an effort to push myself 100% when I'm with him, otherwise it's a waste of his time and my time and money.
I also have to keep reminding myself that when I worked with Leo, I went to the gym 5-7 times a week. With Dale, I'm lucky if I get 4 times a week. That definitely has an impact on the results that I've seen. They're not as fast as what I saw with Leo, nor are they as dramatic. My hope is that I'm able to consistently go 4 times a week, and to keep pushing that number until I get back into the 7 day range. That'll be good for me.
He's killed me the past couple times I've gone. I've left dripping with sweat and spent the next two days recovering barely able to move. It's a good feeling, but it's kinda frustrating when I can't walk. I wish there was a different reason that my thighs burn as much as they do, but the gym's the next best thing. ;-)
